I like my DeeZee NXT boards. I wanted the GoRhino RB10 boards but everyone was having issues with the coating peeling. 

They are adjustable in-out 1” so with them slid in they are flush with the stock tires. They are powdercoated aluminum so rust isn’t an issue. I added fillers between the boards and rockers to hide the gap and made some flaps at the front to protect the front doors from rock chips. I’ve had them over a year and they still look like new even after all of the road salt this winter.

Hoosiers did you order your Deezee specifically for our model trucks or the Colorado and could I get the dz part number thanks

The NXTs come in three lengths, reg cab, ext cab, & crew cab. The boards are universal and the brackets are model specific. The ext cab boards are about 3-4” shorter than the cab so I bought the crew cab length. They are a few inches longer than the cab but they are long enough I can put one foot on the board and the other foot on the tire to reach into the front of the bed.

Need some help.  I am looking at purchasing the Westin HDX Drop Steps or the N-Fab Black Podium steps and wanted to get some feedback from y'all.  Do either or both mount to the frame or the rocker panel?  How long have you had them and are they holding up well?  Would you buy them again? Also, how is the width? I have large feet, size 13 and don't want to have an issue with them fitting on the steps.

 

I am tired of having rain or snow on the OEM and about bust my a$$ trying to get into the truck with the plastic step pieces.

 

Thanks!

On my old Tahoe, I had put down strips of grip tape on the running boards and had no issues.  Might be something to look at and would be cheaper than new ones.

Thanks, didn't even think of that.

Thanks Crawl.........I bought them from CARID for $330.  I'm super happy with them

Not bad! Look good and serve the purpose. Don’t want to drop the money on amp stels right now

Yeah, I wanted to go with amp steps but couldn't see paying the 1500-2k for them.

Long time lurker here. 

 

I recently ordered some iArmor rock sliders from carid and I give them a 7/10.

 

Happy with my purchase, as the woman always complained when getting into my truck, and I'm not ever riding in her new VW bug. She has finally stopped complaining and asking to go in her car. 

 

Easy installation. They bolt into the body on the prethreaded holes, except for the mount in the rear where U nuts are required. Took about an hour to install by myself. 

I worry about the clearance I lost in that spot though.. I frequently off-road in places where I already scrape bottom. Worried about what will happen now. 

As for myself, being 6ft tall, I never needed the steps, but they can be useful after a work out, although using them really makes me stand tall over the cab. 

Love the aggressive look. Not sure how to clean them... yet. Don't want to use armor all and bust my ass ?

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
